Assumed background

A basic knowledge and understanding of electric motors normally gained on an undergraduate degree in engineering is assumed, or the equivalent gained through industrial experience.

This course is developed and delivered by experts with academic and industrial background. Our idea is to show you, how you can improve on your specialization and help you to understand even more about electric drive technology. After our courses you will be able to carry out your motor design tasks effectively and confidently. We are also happy to provide 10hrs FREE technical assistance after the training if you were attended for 3 days.

We also provide discounts if you sign up for full package of 3 days courses.
